Of course there is a negative tone to almost everything in the media about City. You'd have to be intellectually lacking not to get it. But ADUG went out of their way to enter the waters of English football with a big splash instead of slipping quietly in. Therefore they should just like it or lump it IMO. Which, to be fair, is what they do. The silence most posters complain about is the only possible response the Sheikh has open to him. He started it with Robinho and the loudmouth Chairman. Garry Cook was none too tactful at times, either. Who remembers his Stoke City comments? Unbelievably crass. ADUG were loud, brash and in your face. First impressions and all that. Khaldoon was damage limitation. So we should just accept that the media have taken their position and are quite happy to spout faint praise, half-truths and lies. Fuck 'em. Oh, and some of you need to wipe your fannies. That's the expression, isn't it?
